Dangerous Man

My favorite overall taproom in Minneapolis. Hoping Rob decides to expand in the near future.

 

I love the taproom. I feel the beer is well worth it too. I love how they usually have a randall going.

 

You said hoping Rob and I saw Hopping Rod.

 

Wait, how is Dangerous Man going to expand without moving to a different location?

 

There has been talk of annexing an adjacent storefront.

 

What are they going to do when the hipsters' attention is directed from craft beer to something else? And the hipsters' attention will be directed elsewhere eventually.

Count me among those that think Dangerous Man isn't that great.

 

He has no room to expand.

 

Counted
I agree that nothing they have done has been amazing but the chocolate milk stout is a delicious beer that is not readily available anywhere else in MN and all of their beers have been dependably good, not great.

I think the limitations of space have also limited creativity as well and would be interested in what they would do with more space.

 

Haters gonna hate. I love the Dangerous Man.

 

The coffee porter is damn good!

 

I stopped in recently and I wasn't that impressed. The beer is decent but not so good that I'd, personally, deem it worthwhile to make another trip out there anytime soon. Something seems to be missing from a lot of the beers he brews, I can't put my finger on it. I like the experimentation and the creativity of some of the beers but those things coupled with exclusivity don't always make something great. It feels to me like there's a bit of a hype machine running at Dangerous Man.

All of that being said, I'm completely aware that opinions are like a-holes, and I think that it's just a tad pumped up. I went in with high expectations which ultimately led to moderate disappointment. But I do agree that the chocolate milk stout was good--if he put it on nitro, it would move it up from good to outstanding, and maybe I'd make a repeat visit just to check it out.

 

That said, I'd rather not hear your opinions after a few burritos locos!

 

I am quite a fan boy of Dangerous Man. Also heard they wanted to buy an adjacent store and hopefully do a few barrel aged beers. I like going in and having something new to try almost every single time I am in there. Really dig their IPA, IIPA, Matchbox Coffee Porter, Coconut Milk Stout and their Chocolate Milk Stout.

 

They should expand, then maybe their growler prices will come down to earth.

 

Agreed, I have a growler from them, but I never get a fill due to the price. HammerHeart has some crazy growler prices too, but a lot were purchased while I was in there.

 

Yeah, HammerHeart has great beer, but I was pretty shocked at the price of their growlers.
They had a disclaimer at the bottom of the growler list that said 'prices subject to change'.
I told my buddy that they better change, if they want to keep selling growlers - holy shit were they $$$

 

How much are they at dangerous man and at hammer heart?

 

My guess is that these guys don't want to run out of beer in their taprooms... At Hammerheart I got the impression that allocations are tight right now. Imagine if prices were in line with other places like PDBC... I for one would have purchased two or three growlers on my trip. I bet down the line the prices will be subjected to a change
